What is Endometriosis? Is a condition where cells similar to those lining the womb grow elsewhere in the body
.
Every month these cells build up and then break down and bleed, just like the cells in the womb. Unlike the cells in the womb that exit the body as a period, this blood has no way to get out, causing symptoms
.
This condition is chronic and debilitating, causing painful or heavy periods. It can also lead to infertility and bowel and bladder problems
.
